Christine is a successful doctor living in the high-pressure world of Boston medicine, where life moves fast and emotions are often left at the door. When an unexpected holiday break offers a rare chance to breathe, she returns to her quiet hometown of Dorset, Vermont. She expects nothing more than a brief pause from the chaos-a peaceful week with her mother and Mimi, some cocoa by the fire, and maybe decorating a tree or two before heading back to the life she's worked so hard to build.
But just before she leaves Boston, her boyfriend, Tyler, surprises her with a marriage proposal. Caught off guard and uncertain, Christine doesn't say yes-but she promises to give him an answer by Christmas.
Back in Dorset, the snow settles like a soft blanket over the town, and Christine finds herself swept into the charm she thought she'd long outgrown: glowing lights on every street, traditions wrapped in nostalgia, and familiar faces returning with surprising warmth. Chief among them is Adam-her childhood friend and first crush-whose quiet presence and steady heart begin to stir something deep within her. The more time she spends in Dorset, the harder it becomes to ignore the tug on her heart... and the pull away from the life she left behind.
But Dorset holds more than just memories. As the days unfold, Christine realizes she's being watched by a strange little woman dressed like an elf-someone who seems to appear wherever she goes. Eventually, the truth begins to unravel. The woman is no ordinary stranger, and the secret she reveals changes everything.
Christine's father was no ordinary man. He was the love of her mother's life. And he was Santa Claus-who vanished without a trace on Christmas Eve, long before Christine was born.
What began as a simple holiday visit becomes a life-changing journey-one filled with magic, memory, and meaning. As long-buried truths rise to the surface, old wounds begin to heal, and long-lost connections are reborn under the shimmer of falling snow.
Now, with Christmas approaching and the past illuminated in a new light, Christine must make an impossible choice: return to the structured life she's built, or embrace a future shaped by faith, family, and a love story bigger than she ever imagined.
Set against the enchanting backdrop of a snow-covered town where magic lingers in the air and destiny is written in starlight, Dear Santa, It's Me Again is a heartwarming holiday novel about coming home, opening your heart, and rediscovering the joy you didn't know was missing.
Because some homes aren't just places-they're people.
And some stories don't end.
They begin.
